Nasir Adderley: Everything you need to know

The Colts cut Adderley on Thursday, JJ Stankevitz of the team's official site reports. A 2019 second-round pick, Adderley played four seasons with the Chargers and suited up in 50 games (44 starts), recording 232 tackles (168 solo), 12 pass breakups and three interceptions. He chose to retire in 2023, citing a desire to preserve his health and spend time with loved ones. However, he began a comeback attempt in April when he signed with the Colts, but that was cut short before OTAs began.

Indianapolis signed Adderley to a contract Tuesday. Adderley stepped away from the NFL in 2023 after playing four seasons with the Chargers, but three years later the safety will now return to the league and compete for a role in the Colts' secondary. The 28-year-old started three of his four seasons in Los Angeles, posting 232 tackles and 12 passes defensed, including three interceptions, during that span.
